I had to “break up” (for a lack of better term) with a friend a few years ago because they did the “tee hee I’m just a little guy >.< I feel so bad rn and I don’t know why!! No I haven’t eaten or slept or taken meds or-“ thing with EVERYTHING.
They never slept for more than four hours a day, which they complained about. I asked if they had tried going to the doctor. They said no, that their parents wouldn’t let them. They’re an adult and had their license, so I asked why they didn’t drive themselves to the doctor. No answer.
They skipped school nearly every day because they didn’t feel like going, that they didn’t understand the work. I worked through it step by step, I scheduled tutoring sessions where they did everything in their power to distract me from teaching them anything. I was a pretty good student, and I made a personalized exam sheet that would help me figure out where they were at in terms of math skills. They refused to fill it out. They complained about their math homework and when I asked what it was about, they told me they didn’t know. Frustrated, I asked what was on the page. They didn’t know. I asked them what the name of the assignment was. Turns out, they hadn’t even opened it yet.
They’d eventually go into “homeschooling” that was really just a soft drop-out. They’d call and text constantly, begging for me to hang out with them because they were bored. When I didn’t answer their calls, they’d act as though I didn’t like them anymore. They did this thing where they’d just text “Meow” over and over and over and over again until I answered. For. hours. At. A time. I was usually either asleep or at school. It got to the point that hearing their texting noise go off made me preemptively angry. I asked them to stop. I told them that it bothered me. At some point I was so tired of it that I just told them outright that it was annoying and I hated it, which was honestly an understatement! They’d always act as though I was attacking them, calling them annoying and that I hated them.
They had this thing where they’d beg to pick me up or get physical in some way, specifically with wanting to fight me because that’s how they “knew how to show affection”. I do not like being touched, and I refused again and again because they kept asking, no matter how much I reiterated that I wouldn’t let them bite or wrestle or pick me up. They’d get super huffy about it, always in that stupid “UwU you’re being so mean to me” tone.
It was one day where I was laying in bed, and I heard the text tone go off, and for just a second I thought about changing the noise that way I wouldn’t find it as aggravating. Then, finally, I thought to myself “why the fuck would I do that when I could just stop talking to them?” And that was that.
There was a lot of other things too that finally pushed me over the edge with them, but seeing your post about people acting like that and expecting sympathy reminded me so thoroughly of them that it grossed me out, lmfao. I am much more stubborn with my boundaries now!
That ex-friend is on tumblr, so, if you see this for some reason even though I’ve blocked you,
Respect my boundaries and get fucked!
I also choose this person's ex friend
Actually yeah if the aforementioned ex friend sees this and recognises themselves from the description, I want them to know that I also want you to go fuck yourself.
